After entering the main hall, a young Qi Condensation female disciple came up and asked, "Sir, what can I do for you?"
Qin Di said, "I want to join the Celestial Music Sect. What requirements do I have?"
The woman smiled and replied, "There are five tests to enter the sect. Choose celestial bamboo, remember bird songs, listen to celestial music, play celestial music, and present celestial materials. As long as you pass the first test, you can become a service disciple. After the second test, you can become an outer disciple. After the third test, you can become an inner disciple. After the fourth test, you can become an elite disciple. If you pass all five tests, you can become a personal disciple."
"What are the age and cultivation requirements of the Celestial Music Sect?"
The woman shook her head. "Once you enter the Celestial Music Sect, you have to forget your age and cultivation. Within the sect, the use of swords and spears is prohibited, and the use of spirit tools other than musical instruments is not allowed. All battles must be carried out through the playing of music.
Qin Di was a little flabbergasted and said, "Can I be presumptuous and ask if the Immortal Music Sect can defend against the attacks of other sects with just the power of music?"
The woman raised her head and proudly said, "Our Celestial Music Sect's cultivation technique is very special. We divide all music into different levels. As long as you can play three sections of music, you can defend against all Qi Condensation cultivators. Six sections can defend against Foundation Establishment cultivators. Nine sections can defend against Golden Core cultivators. Twelve sections can defend against Nascent Soul cultivators. Fifteen sections can defend against Perfected Lord Bu Xu. Our sect has been in the Cloud Dream Swamp for 200,000 years. During this time, other sects have been destroyed many times, but our Celestial Music Sect has always been fine. "
Qin Di was very happy and wanted to make the immortal artifact phoenix zither even more. He asked, "Does the Celestial Music Sect allow two sects? In other words, I have already joined another sect and want to enter the Celestial Music Sect to study. Is that okay? "
The woman replied, "The reason our sect is strong is because there are very few restrictions. Not only does the Celestial Music Sect allow disciples from other sects to join, but it doesn't matter what race they are. Even the Goblin and the Dragon Princess can study in our sect. It is because we make friends and learn from others that we are less threatened by outsiders. "
"Then what if someone learns the Celestial Music Sect but secretly teaches it to others? Will the Celestial Music Sect suffer damage and slowly wither over time?"
The woman smiled. "To enter the sect, you have to go through layers of tests. Only disciples with good temperament and contributions will be given core cultivation techniques. "
Qin Di said, "Since that's the case, I'll apply to join the Celestial Music Sect."
The woman said, "Please wait a moment. Once we have gathered five people, we can set off."
Qin Di found a seat in the hall and sat down. After about the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, he heard the woman call out, "Alright, friends waiting for the test, please follow me! Tao Sect's disciple, Tao Tao, I will. "Tao,"
"Tao", he and Tao. He is to Tao, he "Tao" Tao.
The "Chen" The Sect of the Shen. The "The Sect"
Apart from him, there were four other people waiting to be tested on the flying ship. One of them was a Nascent Soul Cultivator, two were Golden Cores and the last one was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
Qin Di greeted the four of them and the two Golden Cores stood up to return the greeting. The Foundation Establishment Cultivator was even more respectful. However, the Nascent Soul merely harrumphed and turned his head away.
Qin Di did not take it to heart. To him, this was just a passerby in his life. If it was somewhere else and he was unhappy, he could just throw out the God Suppression Pagoda and take that person in!
After flying for about 10 minutes, they landed on a small island.
Although the island was small and was only about 200 to 300 kilometers wide, there were a few mountains that gave off an undulating feeling.
Qin Di took a deep breath and felt that the spirit qi on the island was extremely rich – it was a good place.
Tao Leyun led everyone to the foot of the first mountain and said, "The test will begin here. Everyone, look up. This mountain is filled with bamboo. The bamboo is extraordinary and is called the Celestial Music Bamboo. It is a spirit material used to make flutes. "Our first test is to choose the highest grade and best quality Celestial Music Bamboo! As long as you can choose a spirit bamboo of Grade 5 and above, you'll pass the first test. The higher the grade of the bamboo, the more points you'll need to pass the test! That way, you'll be able to attract the attention of a good teacher. "
Tao Leyun walked along the small path up the mountain and said, "Everyone, please remember that each of you can only choose a single bamboo! Once you're done, chop it off three feet from the ground and bring the bamboo tip to the peak of the mountain for the flute crafters to evaluate. If you pass the test successfully and enter Immortal Music Sect, this bamboo flute will be your first instrument! Everyone, do you understand? Are there any more questions? "
A Golden Core asked, "Can we change it again if we choose wrongly?"
Tao Leyun replied, "You can't change it if you've already chopped it off. These bamboos are treasures of our Immortal Music Sect and we're not allowed to cut them indiscriminately, let alone destroy their roots. That's why we're asking everyone to chop it off three feet above the ground. The remaining parts will recover over time. "
Another Golden Core looked at the bamboo on the mountain and asked, "I wonder if there's any Celestial Music Bamboo that surpasses the spirit grade on this mountain?"
Tao Leyun smiled gently. "It's said that there is. However, it's very difficult for new disciples to find one. Even the Grandmasters of our sect would have to spend a long time and be lucky to find one. If you can find one, you'll definitely attract the attention of our sect's elders! "
"Hehe, I'll give it a try,"
Tao Leyun looked at the few of them. "I've already explained everything that needs to be said. Everyone, you can start choosing your bamboos! Remember, you only have two hours! I won't wait for you guys if you're late! I'll wait for you guys at the peak. "
The moment he said that, the Nascent Soul cultivator was sent flying with a whoosh! Two Golden Cores leaped into the air swiftly as well. Qin Di and the Foundation Establishment Cultivator were the only ones left behind.
Qin Di was not in a hurry as he walked along the small path in the bamboo forest unhurriedly. He said to the little peach tree in his stomach, "Help me scan around and see if there's any immortal grade bamboos."
Before long, the little peach tree replied, "Within a radius of 50 kilometers, there are seven spirit immortal grade bamboos. Among them, the highest grade is already at level 6 spirit immortal! The rest are from level 1 to 5. "
Qin Di was shocked. "How can there be so many spirit immortal grade bamboos in such a small mountain range? They're practically like cabbages! "
The little peach tree chuckled and said, "Along the way, I noticed from the air that there are three immortal spirit veins in this Cloud Dream Marsh. Two of them are water veins and one is wood vein. Among the two immortal spirit water veins, one comes from the Tongtian River from west to east while the other comes from the Cloud Dream Marsh itself from north to south. As for the immortal spirit wood vein, it's also from north to south and is scattered across the various islands. Apart from that, there are large or even gigantic earth veins on the various islands. That's why the spirit qi is extremely rich. That's why there are so many spirit immortal grade bamboos growing here! "
Qin Di was speechless and thought to himself, 'Seems like the closer we get to the spirit mountain along the Tongtian River, the richer the spirit qi is. This place is still far from the spirit mountain but compared to Scarlet Flame Island, it's a world of difference. Back then, Scarlet Flame Island only had one large spirit vein but there are three immortal spirit veins here! '
"Since that's the case, let's go chop down the sixth spirit immortal grade spirit bamboo! Let's see if we can lure out the patriarch of the Immortal Music Sect. As the saying goes, it's easy to meet the King of Hell, but it's hard to fend off a small ghost. The higher the level, the easier it is to talk. I can't waste too much time here. It's best if I can become a disciple of a top master so that I can quickly learn the true sutra. "
Under the little peach tree's guidance, he found the spot in less than five minutes. Amidst the huge bamboos that were about a foot thick, there was an Immortal Music Bamboo that was as thin as a thumb. It was less than ten feet tall and looked ordinary. It was hard to believe that it was a sixth-grade Spirit Immortal-level Immortal Music Bamboo. Without the guidance of the little peach tree, he would not have found such a bamboo even if he had three years!
Qin Di grabbed the Immortal Music Bamboo and released his divine consciousness to communicate with it. "I've found you. You can no longer hide!"
The Immortal Music Bamboo let out a sobbing sound. "Boohoo, let go of me! Don't hurt me! "
Qin Di asked, "As a Immortal Music Bamboo, what's your dream?"
"Boohoo, I just want to live. The longer I live, the higher my grade is. Only then can I become a high-grade numinous treasure or even an immortal artifact bamboo flute!"
Qin Di sighed. "You were born under the Immortal Music Bamboo, so it's hard for you to escape the fate of being chopped down. I don't want to hurt you either. I just want to make a deal with you. I'll chop off a section of your bamboo and teach you the method to break through to the Heaven Immortal realm. How about that? "
"Boohoo, it hurts so much! Do you really have the method to become a Heaven Immortal? "
"Yes, I can teach you the method first."
"Boohoo, let me think … Alright, I've been caught by you and I can't escape. I can only agree to it!"
The little peach tree extended a branch from Qin Di's arm and wrapped it around the Immortal Music Bamboo, passing on the method to become a Heaven Immortal.
Not long after, a cracking sound could be heard. The Immortal Music Bamboo broke into two pieces five feet from the ground.
Qin Di held the upper part in his hand and saw that the five-foot-tall bamboo was gradually shrinking until it was only one foot tall. Even a Dao Integration Stage ancestor would not be able to recognize such a small bamboo.
The Immortal Music Bamboo let out a crisp voice. "Hehe, this can be considered a blessing in disguise! Thank you, Immortal Elder! "
Qin Di waved his hand and said, "I should be thanking you. I wish you a smooth breakthrough. "
